Citizen Khan aka Adil Ray

DESIblitz caught up with creator and actor of the BBC sitcom Citizen Khan, Adil Ray to have a gupshup with him about his work, life and interests.
Created by Adil Ray and written in collaboration with Anil Gupta (Goodness Gracious Me, The Kumars at No. 42) and Richard Pinto, Citizen Khan is a family comedy that centres around the lives and mishaps of a normal and un-extraordinary Pakistani family in Sparkhill.
The sitcom first graced our television screens on August 27, 2012. Featuring an infamous 1970’s chequered brown suit, a Pakistani ‘topi’ and of course the ‘antique’ canary yellow Mercedes that we see in the opening credits, the original 6 part series focused on the antics of self-proclaimed ‘community leader’, Mr Khan.
